“The sale entitled
African Lion: John Muafangejo Works from The Orde Levinson Collection offers a sweeping overview of the artist’s trailblazing career,” says Dr Alastair Meredith, a senior art specialist at Strauss & Co who led negotiations for this important consignment. “The group of works on offer reveals a lifetime of patient, focused collecting, and gives print enthusiasts a rare opportunity to acquire examples from a collection of museum-grade quality, scope and historical weight. Dedicating an entire sale to a single artist is unique, of course, and allows academics and collectors alike to better appreciate this artist’s remarkable output.”
ST. FRANCISVILLE â The West Feliciana Parish School Board took action Dec. 15 related to trying to run a school system during an out-of-control coronavirus pandemic.
The board modified its discipline policies related to instruction via the internet, following a legislative uproar over discipline recommended for a Jefferson Parish student who had a BB gun showing in his room during a virtual class.
Board members also approved a $22,000 per month contract, for six months, with a Baton Rouge firm that will do twice-weekly âdeep cleaningâ in each of the parishâs four schools.
Board attorney Bob Hammonds said the Louisiana attorney general pushed through Act 48 of the most recent legislative session that requires each school board in the state to have a policy on discipline during virtual learning sessions.
